How to remove the Apps Shortcut from Chrome’s Bookmarks Bar

In latest Chrome builds you may have seen a “Apps” shortcut at the beginning of the bookmarks bar; the shortcut is there because the apps are no longer displayed on the New Tab page, instead they’re in another page… If you use Chrome, this is something you must know by know so I’ll skip it.

Now, how to remove it? Well, this is easy. Right-click the bookmarks bar, then make sure to uncheck the “Show Apps shortcut”.

And that’s it, if you want, you can bookmark chrome://apps, that way, you can remove name and leave the icon alone… if you want.
